🎓 ACCOLADE | Keisha Lanier Brown

We’re celebrating GSU EPS Ph.D. student Keisha Lanier Brown on her selection to participate in the QuEST Training through AIR’s P3 Program! 🎉

Keisha joined researchers from across the country for a week-long, in-person training in Chicago, Illinois, focused on conducting a meta-analysis—from search to synthesis. This intensive experience provided valuable training in research methods that will strengthen her scholarly work and contribute to her development as an emerging educational researcher.

Congratulations, Keisha, on this exciting opportunity to expand your research expertise and continue making your mark as a scholar! 👏🏾📚
